Most people are aware that women face workplace discrimination as a result of pregnancy and motherhood. Even though there are federal laws in place protecting pregnant women and their jobs, employers are often eager to force new or expectant mothers out of their companies.

Age discrimination, commonly referred to as ageism, is when an employer bases their decision to hire, fire, promote or offer lower wages to someone based on their age. This affects not only the older generations but the younger ones as well.

An administrative assistant working at the corporate offices of a prominent New York City food store settled her age discrimination and harassment case on the eve of trial. The terms of the settlement, which were to remain confidential, paid the plaintiff one and one half times her salary. Plaintiff was 66 years of age. Although she had received numerous above satisfactory evaluations and raises, new Management made negative comments about Plaintiff concerning her work, attitude and "failure to take on additional responsibilities". These comments were false and were pre-textual for bias and prejudice towards older workers.
